Ingredients
Scale
Granola Base
- 3/4 cup oats
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 3-4 tbsp honey (adjust to desired sweetness)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Filling and Toppings
- 1 1/2 cups Greek yogurt
- Berries of choice, for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the granola dough: In a bowl, combine the oats, cinnamon, almond butter, honey, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients form a sticky, cohesive dough. If the mixture is too dry to hold together, gradually add more almond butter and honey until it sticks well.
- Form the granola base: Line a muffin pan with muffin liners. Spoon a portion of the granola dough into the bottom of each muffin cup. Firmly press the dough down with your fingers to create a sturdy, compact base layer for the cups.
- Add yogurt and toppings: Spoon a generous amount of Greek yogurt into each granola base cup. Then, top each cup with fresh berries and sprinkle any remaining granola dough on top to add extra texture and crunch.
- Freeze to set: Place the muffin pan in the freezer for at least 4 hours or until the yogurt and granola cups become fully set and firm to the touch.
- Serve: Remove the frozen yogurt granola cups from the freezer. Allow them to thaw slightly for a couple of minutes to soften before enjoying as a cool, delicious snack or dessert.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of honey to suit your desired sweetness level.
- Use any berries you prefer—strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or a mix work beautifully.
- Ensure granola dough is pressed tightly to help it hold together when frozen.
- Let the cups thaw only briefly before eating to keep them firm but not rock-hard.
- For a nut-free option, substitute almond butter with sunflower seed butter.
